When you are buying or hiring anything – not just event chair hire – it’s always good to be armed with information and top tips about what to look for, and what pitfalls to avoid. Our series of top tip articles, therefore, are designed to provide our clients with such information, which will hopefully save you time, money and effort when the time comes for you to consider event chair hire.
You would think that hiring chairs would be straightforward…and it is, assuming that you know what you want. There are a multitude of different event chairs for hire out there, at least there are from award-winning national event hire specialists such as Event Hire UK. Whatever your event or occasion, then we have the chairs for you!
Let’s have a look at some top 3 tips which will help you decide.
The type of chair you will need to hire will very much depend upon the type of event you are organising. The most popular hire chairs in the industry are folding chairs (also known as samsonite chairs) as well as the Chiavari chair, which is the classic wedding chair. However, even within these two categories, there are ranges of chairs for rent which are available, so think carefully about the style and colour which will best fit your needs.
Event Hire UK, for example, offers wedding chairs in different styles, including Napoleon chair hire, cross back chairs and Chiavari event chair hire, all of which are perfectly suitable for weddings, it’s simply a case of slightly different design on the backs of the chairs. Of course, it might be that you want to hire chair covers as part of your requirements, in which case, the back of the wedding chair design becomes less important.
Leading event hire specialists who offer different ranges are also likely to offer wedding chairs, conference chairs and so on in different colours and this is indeed something that Event Hire UK offers. This is particularly useful when trying to hire chairs according to a pre-existing colour scheme. For example, it might be that a company is holding a conference, shareholder meeting or product launch for clients with the company having a black logo and so black folding chairs or black conference chairs would be ideal to fit in with the overall professional look and corporate image.
By the same token, wedding chairs are available in different colours from Event Hire UK. Chiavari chairs for hire, for example, are available in limewash, silver, white, black and more, providing you with the complete colour range to choose from. These neutral coloured chairs within our wider range of event chair hire will complement any colour scheme.
And better still, our ranges of wedding chairs for rent come with interchangeable seat pads, meaning that not only can you choose the colour of the chairs, but also the seat pads! There’s nothing to say, of course, that all your chairs have to be the same colour – why not mix and match for a real ‘Alice in Wonderland’ look and finish!
Event chair hire is hugely popular across the UK and, as a result, chairs spend most of their time on-site at events. Being in-situ and being transported on a regular basis can mean that chairs start to look worn, with flaking paint and chips commonplace. That is, however, unless your event hire company treats them with care, and ensure that their chairs undergo regular maintenance.
Event Hire UK, uniquely, has its own respray and refurbishment team in-house, meaning that when our chairs come back into our distribution centres, they are provided with some TLC on a regular basis, therefore ensuring that our clients receive their very best quality hire chairs for their money and for their event. Smaller companies may not offer this service, and so you take a risk with your event chair hire. Work with Event Hire UK and you can be sure that your chair hire experience will be seamless, and they will look amazing.
So, it’s relatively simple, isn’t it. Choose what you want, hire in the right quantity and ensure good quality. We didn’t mention price, did we? This is for a reason. If you are looking for cheap chair hire, then you are probably in the wrong place, as you will get what you pay for, like anything else. We provide a competitive price for a great quality product and service. Let’s face it, the last thing you need at your event is poor quality event chair hire, which is commented on by your guests. Don’t let yourself down!
When the time comes for you to choose event chair hire, hopefully these tips will help you, and you’ll hire chairs from the team here at Event Hire UK. We’re here to provide you with a seamless hire experience from start to finish when it comes to event chair hire and event furniture hire at large, and very much look forward to working with you soon!
